Machodom

These boys are cast as heroes of American machodom, and machodom has a problem with gender. Perhaps because it is as ignorant as a post, machodom does not realize that armies and navies and sports teams from Achilles and Patroclus through Nelson's navy to the Gulf War have been built on homoeroticism.

A foodie, domestic male is not a figure emasculated, but rather one of privilege, spared the humiliations and injurious defeats of machodom.
